Paris ↔︎ US
Published in Major Museum Catalogs:
I’m Caroline Coyner, a photographer working between Paris and the U.S., specializing in art, antiques, interiors, and portraiture.
I create precise, carefully lit images for museums, galleries, auction houses, dealers, and private collectors, as well as portraits for artists and professionals. My work is shaped by close collaboration with curators, collectors, and sitters, and by a deep attention to materials, light, and presence.
I studied Art History at the École du Louvre and began my career at the Château de Versailles.
After moving to the U.S., I managed an antiques store and eventually launched my own business.
Years of working closely with curators, collectors, and dealers taught me how to photograph objects with care, precision, and an eye for what makes them exceptional.
My work has been published in exhibition catalogs for the Musée d'Orsay, the Orangerie, the Getty, and the Art Institute of Chicago.
What drives me?
Great photography makes you stop and really look.
That’s what I aim to do for my clients — whether it’s a single piece or an entire collection.
